This is a club ride to the Vespa Australia Picnic event starting from the iconic Vespa dealership in Melbourne, Vespa House. And ending at the beautiful Rippon Lea Estate for the Vespa Australia event.
If you have a ticket to the event, you can join us on this ride or we will see you there. But there's no point riding with us unless you have a ticket.
Tickets are / were available: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/vespa-pic-nic-day-tickets-152959631375
Meeting from 11.30 AM at Vespa House, Corner Johnston St and Palmer St, Collingwood. MAP
There is take away coffee available on the near corner at 'Libertine & Co' Campbell St.
Departure is 12.15 sharp.
We'll take a simple route down Punt Rd, Alexandra Ave, and then Williams Rd / Hotham St to Rippon Lea, Elsternwick
In between our picnic lunch we'll be presenting the Vespas in front of Rippon Lea for an official photo shoot, so polished and detailed bikes are a must.
If you have a club legshield banner then please bring it. If you want one.
There is a second ride organized from the East: leaving Mornington Secondary College on Nepean Highway at 12

The sun is shining!
If the tickets on the site run out, we have one spare member ticket to give away at the Vespa House meet-up.
Ask Julie if that applies to you.
Hi Lisa. No.
If you want to ride in. We are meeting at Collingwood from 11.30 AM for coffee, the departing at 12.15 PM
We will ride to Rippon Lea and arrive there at 1 PM. If you want to go directly there we'll see you at Rippoin Lea at 1 PM.
Would that be meet at 1pm (rather than 11)?
If you have a VA ticket to this event, you don't have to attend this ride. If it's easier for you then we'll meet you at the gate to Rippon Lea at 11.
Take 2.. see its sold out!
Living Bayside, would it be OK to meet at Ripponlea rather than come all the way over to Vespa House?
If OK, what time do you expect to arrive at Ripponlea and would I still be required to pruchase a ticket?
